Cloudian and ABEJA Team to Provide Scale-Out Object Storage Options for Managing and Storing Vast Volumes of Deep Learning Data

Cloudian announced a technical partnership with ABEJA, Inc., a producer of
platform as a service (PaaS) technology that utilizes deep learning technology
to support business change as a partner of ABEJA Platform Partner Ecosystem.
Cloudian enables customers to store large quantities of data generated by the
ABEJA artificial intelligence (AI) platform economically, efficiently and
reliably on-premises in a limitlessly scalable storage environment.

The solution, enabled by Cloudian's HyperStore, may be used in hybrid
cloud deployments to isolate sensitive data and confidential information, such
as manufacturing data and research and development materials within on-premises
storage.

The ABEJA platform is a PaaS technology that acquires, accumulates,
learns, analyzes, outputs and feeds back various data.

ABEJA's deep learning technology depends on data to "learn" the correct
ways to discover answers to business and research questions. This process
starts with the acquisition of mass data from a variety of sources, including
IoT devices, sensors and existing systems. After this data is accumulated and
validated, it is used to create the neural networks of the deep learning system
using ABEJA's 10-step process. This process - and the ongoing operation of the
AI system - depend on very large volumes of easily-accessible unstructured
data, something that plays to the strengths of the Cloudian limitlessly
scalable object storage platform.

"Machine learning
applications require storage that's both bigger and smarter, combining capacity,
rich metadata tagging, and search tools in one platform," said Jon Toor, CMO at
Cloudian. "Our partnership with ABEJA will help us bring these Cloudian
benefits to even more users as we further demonstrate the power and efficiency
of our combined solution."
